Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

6720 quarts could be made in 48 hours.

The rate per day is 3360

280/2 = 140 per hour.

In 24 hours ( a whole day) 24 x 140 = 3,360

7. For homework Javier has to solve the equation below.

cricket20 [7]

Answer:

C 10⁴

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is

$7.75n = 77500$

Javier has to solve for n

He can multiply through by 100 to get;

$775n = 7750000$

He can now divide through by 775 to obtain:

$n = \frac{7750000}{775}$

He can now easily simplify to get:

$n = 10000$

We rewrite as a power to get:

$n = {10}^{4}$
